Same here.
Weapons maybe?, but sure no monitors.

Curious note:
I recorded a demo from the cutscene of the evil breakdown at the very
beginning - when you find the lost scientist - and, during the playback,
the scene sorta filled up of "holograms" of the scientist that won't go
away :-/

Yeah I get the same thing, Steve... Until they come out with a patch that
fixes it I'm using fraps. bit laggy when recording demos, but it captures
everything, including sounds. I might play around with re-encoding the AVIs
to DivX though, as the fraps avi encoder seems to yield pretty hefty file
sizes

There is a console command, a cvar I think, that does the same thing. The
result is that no computer screens display info and the weapons don't show
how much ammo you have left. I'm not sure what the benefit of using that
setting would be, but it seems that this is the setting that gets
activated when you playback a demo.

I wonder if that's why the demo1.demo is all shotgun.

Nope, doesn't happen to me. I get all the screens and weapon displays in my
screenshots. I haven't done anything to alter it. The only problem I have
is that the shots are too dark. Much darker than the actual gameplay
screen.

regular screenshots look fine, those are screenshots of demos playing back.
